He might have been constipated. Don't use spray paint. It takes forever for the fumes to go away and when it gets warm it still produces a strong odor. You can cover 3 sides with a nature background for terrariums or just use dark colored construction paper like black or dark brown. You should stay around 80 to 82 degrees so he doesn't get too hot.

You didn't answer what your frogs humidity level is. You must keep the humidity between 70 and 80% at all times. This is very important. Your frog is probably very stressed. Try night crawlers and see if he will eat them or wax worms.

Your frogs climate must be consistant and the day night cycle must be as well. If the temp keeps jumping around during the day and night from your lights turning on and off all the time it can cause stress. Are you keeping him in a critter keeper or in a glass tank?

Keep me posted.

He still hasn't eaten. His poo looked normal, no blood or anything.
As for humidity levels, I keep their husbandry the same as I did with my Emperor scorpions 75%+, I do not have a hydrometer so I can't give an exact but will pick up a few this evening.

I have no idea what to do to keep their temps constant, should I buy 2 or 3 4watt UTH and place them on the side of each tank. I wanted to go the cheap route with a heat lamp but even at 50watts and it keeps all the tanks hotter than 82 if left on for 12 hours. It's hard as well since my central air is on auto. It was easier with my inverts since I had a large closet dedicated to them so it was much easier to control.

It is a good idea to buy a UTH and place it on the side of the tank(not on the bottom like the name suggests) that is the warm side oposite the water dish. You should buy a heat lamp that has a dimmer switch so you can adjust the amount of light and heat coming from your bulb. This way it can be adjusted to a level that should not overheat the tank. The largest it comes in is (Fluker's 8.5" clamp lamp with Dimmer). Perhaps you should get one for each individual tank as well.

If you don't have a Hygrometer then you don't know what humidity level your Pac is at. I can assure you that it is well below what you believe it to be. You must always be prepared to care for your pet long before you get it. Setup should be up and ready to go with everything you need. If your frog does not have a humidifier and a unit to control the humidifier so that it turns it on and off when humidity is low or at the correct level then the misting even 4 times a day will not keep the humidity above household levels witch is far to low for a tropical frog. Also a screen to while providing ample ventilation also allows humidity and heat to escape as well as drafts to get in. You can. Buy plexiglass and drill air holes in it to cover your screen top to prevent humidity and heat from escaping.

You didn't answer me whether your Pac's tank was a plastic critter keeper or a glass tank. YOU MUST GIVE ME ALL INFORMATION ON YOUR FROG! It is difficult to help when you don't answer all questions. If its plastic you can only use the small Zoo Med UTH item #RH-7 because it does not get hot enough to melt plastic. If its glass then you need one that is the correct size for the tank.

Please note that A/C is extremely bad for frogs and can confuse them as well as make them sick. You MUST keep your frogs away from A/C at all tmes. Never keep the enclosure near an A/C vent or in a room cooled by A/C. There should never be drafts getting into your frogs enclosure.

Keep me posted.
